My First Issue With My Ranger

[AzScorpion]

I've been noticing my Ranger has been acting up lately. It never felt quiet right from day one but seems to be getting worse over the past couple weeks. The transmission seems to buck and surge and never seems to know what gear it wants to be in. Now the newest one, my back has been aching more and more and I almost went out and spent the $80 on those seat jackers. Then while unloading my equipment after work the other day I found the culprit!

When I bought my Ranger I cheeped out and re-used the bed mat from my Tacoma.

Sometimes being Polish has it's drawbacks. Maybe Santa will bring me a Ranger bed mat for Christmas? ? ?

You will probably get a lump of coal after that.

After admitting this I might just have to ban myself for being a traitor.

Check your frame!... might be rusted.

It's not that bad....could have been much worse....could have been from (horror/OMG/shudder) a Chebbie !!!
If that were to happen you and your Ranger would have been banned to the darkest, deepest void where all detested items go, never to be seen again.

The Taco mats are thicker making it easier to reach stuff over design flawed bed sides

Instead of this being adding lipstick to a pig, that was like adding a pig to lipstick.

At least flip that abomination over so nobody can read the "T" word ...

If the bed wasn't at such an extreme angle and unusable as compared to the superior Honda ridge line you would not have this problem.

So a similar story (without any issues) Way back in '99 i bought a new Mazda B3000 it came with a Mazda emblazoned bed liner, i then traded it in for a '02 Ranger and transferred that liner in to the Ranger and of course it fit perfectly because both trucks were identical (cousins) for those that know. Then i had installed a tonneau cover so for the most part it was my secret.

(BTW this was a 2WD stock suspension)
